    No they're not

    For example, Belladonna is not really on the same level as Ghost Widow, and Tyrant is more powerful than Statesman because he drank what should have been Stefan Richter's part of the Well, so he has the power of both Zeus and Tatarus.

    They're already there as missions - you can play them as often as you like

    But surely fighting Snaptooth on a beach in his mankini would make for a memorable summer mission?

    Pray they don't amend it further?
  7. The second stress test on Test server yesterday saw almost no lag at all on the BAF - Dark Watcher said that they'd done something to the ragdoll system which has helped to cut down on lag.

  9. I think that the mention of levees, plus the coastal setting, as well as the voodoo vibe in parts of First Ward are more clues to Praetoria City being in the New Orleans area - which fits with Anti-matter's reactors powering the whole East Coast, and with the route of the Hamidon coming up from South America and going through Mexico before it was stopped by Tyrant.

    Summer Event?

    There should be a tropical beach area of Pocket D
  11. The Mysterious Letter Writer is Ricochet - she's been telling us that since GR came out - we've just not been able to understand that that was what she was saying.

    On Virtue, 50 of us once took out Hamidon is about 7-9 minutes.
    All the super powered people on Praetoria couldn't beat that thing?!
    The Praetorian Hamidon is a little more powerful than the one on Primal Earth

    Well, it's possible we've met now - at the end of the letter on the Ramiel arc, it says:

    Quote:
    "As always, seek me out in the crystal of fire and ice. Or... depending on when you are reading this, you may have merely seen me minutes ago."
    The "when" could be significant - the mission is accessed via the Ouroboros Citadel, so that would mean that the Letter Writer would have to be there for us to have seen them only minutes before we get the letter at the end of the mission, which is a pretty short one.

    If the "when" also refers to players reading it at a later date than it was first added to the game, then the letter was added in I19, Prometheus was added in I20, and Michael and Christy were added in 20.5 - plus any other new NPCs to be added to Ouroboros in future Issues.
  15. The ski slopes are also being opened up until August 28th.

    Mender Ramiel says:

    Quote:
    "Mender Silos holds many secrets, and he likes to think his identity is one of them. Many have ventured that he is actually Lord Nemesis, and I can confirm that as one of his previous aliases.

    But I must caution you, the Lord Nemesis of this time and Mender Silos may be the same person, but they are hundreds of thousands of years removed from one another. People change, and the Menders of Ouroboros follow a leader who knows that what he did in the past was wrong and is trying to correct those mistakes."
  17. The Well has also been described as being "directed" - the Mysterious Letter Writer could be linked to that.

    I don't think her writing/thinking/speech styles match the letter writer. S/he is much more modern. That aside, I just don't think that sort of clandestine "ghost in the machine" stuff is really her bag. She'd use a more direct approach to accomplish her goals.
    The style of the writing is also very un-feminine - women don't write in that way
  19. Second Measue said at SDCC that the next zone to get revamped is one that's been suggested only a couple of times on the forums - so that rules out Boomtown, Dark Astoria and the Shadow Shard

    The next logical one would be Kings Row, where they could really use the new graphics to great effect to make the zone into our very own Gotham

    Steel Canyon, Skyway City and Talos Island are also posssible targets for the next zone revamp.

    But now Galaxy City is famous - everyone starts there
    Returning there to help or sabotage the rebuilding will have more impact on players than doing the same thing in Boomtown.

    Beam Rifle?

    And going by its release in the same Issue as First Ward, I'm pretty sure it's intentional

    I suggested that in the beta section - the new phasing tech could possibly allow Heroes and Villains to share a zone without it being co-op or PvP - enemy players would simply be hidden from view - that way, Villains could help Arachnos loot the ruins of Galaxy City and try and stop the rebuilding work, and Heroes could help Longbow secure the area and try and find all the items that must have been lost when the M.A.G.I. vault was hit, and neither side would need to team up or fight each other - and they could even add some of the generic Heroes and Villains from the radio and Tip misisons as EBs in the zone to help give the impression that the other side was still there.
